Daisy Fay moves with her parents to a beach in Mississippi to run an ice cream shop with her parents. She is in fifth grade when she moves to the beach. She meets many quirky characters in the town of Shell Beach. Daisy Fay joins the junior Debutantes and learns such important things as to how to accessorize with scarves, gloves and jewelry. Daisy has many friends and they go on many wacky adventures together including finding a body on the beach. This is written in the same style as Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe by Fannie Flagg. If you enjoyed that book you are sure to enjoy this one. ( ) "Daisy Fay y el hombre de los milagros" es una novela encantadora escrita por Fannie Flagg que nos transporta a la década de 1950 en el sur de Estados Unidos. La historia sigue los pasos de Daisy Fay, una joven con una imaginación desbordante y una personalidad vivaz, mientras navega por los altibajos de su vida en un pequeño pueblo de Mississippi. Flagg crea un mundo rico y lleno de color a través de los ojos de Daisy, quien narra su propia historia con una voz fresca y llena de humor. A medida que crece, Daisy se encuentra con una variedad de personajes peculiares y situaciones extravagantes que dan vida a la trama y mantienen al lector entretenido. I recently read a book that reminded me of Fannie Flagg’s writing and took a look back at what I had read by her. For whatever reason I missed her debut novel but not anymore. Flagg is the type of writer that you can pick up anytime and become reacquainted with her style and humor. Written from the perspective of a young girl who has such an interesting “take” on her surroundings and relationships you can’t help but love Daisy Fay. Some of her thoughts are laugh out loud funny while some come close to breaking your heart. Never stale, always enlightening and entertaining I am so glad I took a step back in time. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

HTML:“A hilarious, endearing novel.”—Los Angeles Times In Fannie Flagg’s high-spirited first novel, we meet Daisy Fay Harper in the spring of 1952, where she’s “not doing much except sitting around waiting for the sixth grade.” When she leaves Shell Beach, Mississippi, in September 1959, she is packed up and ready for the Miss America Pageant, vowing “I won’t come back until I’m somebody.” But in our hearts she already is. Sassy and irreverent from the get-go, Daisy Fay takes us on a rollicking journey through her formative years on the Gulf Coast of Mississippi. There, at The End of the Road of the South, the family malt shop freezer holds unspeakable things, society maven Mrs. Dot hosts Junior Debutante meetings and shares inspired thoughts for the week (such as “sincerity is as valuable as radium”), and Daisy Fay’s Daddy hatches a quick-cash scheme that involves resurrecting his daughter from the dead in a carefully orchestrated miracle. Along the way, Daisy Fay does a lot of growing up, emerging as one of the most hilarious, appealing, and prized characters in modern fiction. Praise for Daisy Fay and the Miracle Man “Sheer unbeatable entertainment.”—Cosmopolitan “Unforgettable and irresistible.”—Chattanooga Free Press “Side-splittingly funny.”—Cleveland Plain Dealer.
